It seemed to me to be a bit of a daft poll anyway Kaz,. . .when you consider how many other nationals were involved,. . such as 310 Squadron. . .Czechoslovakians. . . . They certainly look like a happy bunch of blokes don't they ?

Their British Sqn. Commander is ( Alegedly ) the bloke with the pipe BTW. . .Although he is not named in this picture. . .As you can see,. . the unit flew Hurricanes.

I've no doubt that the score of German aircraft shot down by this particular Squadron will be available on Wiki Britannica for those interested. . .

The R/T exchanges must have been interesting though,. . as English was not generally spoken in Czechoslovakia in the 1930s - 1940s . . .

I should mention here that, although I was not even a spark in my Dad's eye when all this happened,. . I am seriously thankful that these blokes pictured above decided to volunteer for service in the RAF. AND for all the other people not of English birth who did the same.
